In the midst of the chaos created by the ISIS barbarians is this young Christian Iraqi girl, unafraid, compassionate, and confident in Jesus. A wonder and an inspiration ~

Maryam’s story was originally reported on last summer ~
CBN’s Gary Lane recently caught up with (11-year-old Maryam) and her younger sister Zomorod as they returned from school. Their family recently moved into a small, two bedroom trailer in a community of displaced Christians in Erbil.
So, why is Maryam unafraid of ISIS, and why does she forgive the jihadists who drove her from her home in Qaraqoush?
“In the Bible Jesus said to us, ‘Don’t be afraid, I am with you.’ And also, He said forgive others no matter who they are hating you. You have to forgive them,” she said. “Jesus is my father, and He is my creator. I have no one else better than him. When ISIS drove us out of our home, His hand was on us and He saved us.”
Suffer the little children to come unto me and
forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of God.
~ Mark 10:14
